4 I. Mandatory technical regulation Turkmenistan currently has a system of mandatory technical regulation, similar to the system of technical regulation of the former USSR, where the mandatory technical requirements were set forth in state standards and other regulations of the state executive power. 1 Thus, the legal basis of the system for the mandatory technical regulation is provided by the laws and other legal acts in the field of standardisation and conformity assessment (certification). 1. Regulatory framework (documents of mandatory technical n/a regulation) 2. Participation in the mandatory technical regulation activity n/a 1 In accordance with the legislation of the Republic of Turkmenistan "The requirements of national standards and technical regulations are mandatory for all legal entities and individual entrepreneurs engaged in the development, production, implementation, operation (use), storage, transportation of goods (works, services). 4
